Good morning, Skybirds

For the next two days I will be entirely avoiding people

despair is one of fascism's favorite weapons because fascism often projects more power than it has. the only way to actually keep people in line that way is to crush their spirit so much that they feel that fighting back is pointless. hence shock and awe, hence state terrorism, hence the cruelty

Yeah, unfortunately that's not an effective marketing strategy

My comment on it also escaped containment, although not quite enough to be considered viral. If only that would happen with my book posts...

Good morning, Skybirds

The last two days were very people-y, so today I'm staying home

A quick poetic exercise, titled Driving Around the Cul-de-sac

Man under a streetlamp

running towards him

What is chasing…

No, no that can’t

Loop around

Back to the first lamp

Wait, where is

Ah, man and dog

And tiger?

Just wrote 800 words about the effect of calcium ions on DNA repair proteins.

Cancer research is a glamorous career.

Good morning, Skybirds

I'm awake way too early because I signed up for a workshop.

On the other hand, I was having a dream that I was driving to "Springfield" with my cat, and my mother told me it was in Kentucky, only for me to find out while I was on the road that it was in Louisiana

So, as a 49 year old baby equestrian, there are many things I need to work on.

But I have to ask.

Did anyone else do ballet for their entire childhood and take up riding as an adult? And if so, HOW DID YOU TRAIN YOURSELF TO STOP TURNING YOUR LEGS OUT AND POINTING YOUR TOES?

🐎 🤦

Good morning, Skybirds

Didn't feel like I worked very hard during my lesson yesterday.

My leg muscles are expressing alternative opinions this morning.

Didn't fall off a horse this morning. Not for lack of trying.

Second time trotting in an English saddle, and on a horse that was not in the mood today.

Good afternoon, Skybirds

I've been posting inconsistently lately, because life is crazy, but I'm still here and doing ok.

I'll be back to my regularly scheduled programming when things calm down.

Good morning, Skybirds

Allegedly, I have a lot of time to write today

Good morning, Skybirds

Woke up to a cat fight that was fortunately taking place on either side of a glass door.

How's your Tuesday starting out?
